Abstract

<P>The PADTAD 2008 workshop is a day and a half event at ISSTA 2008 focusing on techniques and systems that aid in the testing, analysis, and debugging of multi&#8211;threaded/parallel/distributed applications systems&#046; The workshop has a practical and applied emphasis on systems that have been implemented in (at least) prototype form&#046; This workshop concentrates on works whose main contributions are in the field of testing and debugging&#046; <BR></P><B>Keywords:</B> <LI>Techniques for multi&#8211;core processors <LI>Techniques for MPI and OpenMP or other library based applications <LI>Transactional memory <LI>Tools for testing or debugging of Multi&#8211;threaded/Parallel/Distributed applications <LI>Test generation algorithms for Multi&#8211;threaded/Parallel/Distributed applications <LI>Debugging advanced network interface technologies (e&#046;g&#046;, Myrinet, VIA) <LI>Debugging and testing Multi&#8211;threaded/Parallel/Distributed applications <LI>Testing and Debugging of Multi&#8211;threaded/Parallel/Distributed applications written using domain&#8211;specific languages <LI>Using static analysis or formal verification to enhance debugging and testing of Multi&#8211;threaded/Parallel/Distributed applications <LI>Formal specification of concurrency libraries, and uses in compliance testing of implementations <LI>Detecting race conditions and deadlocks <LI>Replay of Multi&#8211;threaded/Parallel/Distributed applications <LI>Finding timing bugs early in the process <LI>Testing real&#8211;time Multi&#8211;threaded/Parallel/Distributed applications <LI>Fault injection of Multi&#8211;threaded/Parallel/Distributed applications <LI>Testing the fault tolerance of Multi&#8211;threaded/Parallel/Distributed applications <LI>Testing and debugging techniques for timing related bugs in hardware <LI>Pilots in applying new testing techiniques to Multi&#8211;threaded/Parallel/Distributed applications <LI>Multi&#8211;threaded/Parallel/Distributed review techniques and review tools </LI>
